I tried to make your example into a FPC program without Lazarus:
{$mode objfpc}{$H+}
uses
 comobj;
var
 SavedCW: Word;
 v: OleVariant;
begin
  v:=CreateOleObject('SAPI.SpVoice');
  v.Speak('Hello');
End.
I get:
Running "i:\programming\gcode\mill\sapi.exe "
An unhandled exception occurred at $00414370:
EOleError: Variant does not reference an automation object

I suspect COM is not properly initialized, and that Lazarus does this for you.
(it needs com for some components on windows)

So, try adding unit windows to the uses clause and add

That should be unit activex instead of unit windows.
